Across
- 5. a number that is raised to a power
- 8. a distance a number is from zero
- 11. The values of x where a polynomial is zero. These are the x-coordinates of the x-intercepts of the polynomial’s graph.
- 13. A box with “whiskers” showing the median, quartiles, and extremes (least and greatest values) of a collection of data values.
- 16. More than any finite (real) number.
- 17. an expression that is used to compute a value.
- 18. a whole number and its opposite
- 19. a constant term, thought of as a coefficient of 1.
- 20. A mathematical sentence that uses one of the symbols <, >, ≤, or ≥.
Down
- 1. The mean distance of data values from some central value, such as the mean, median, or mode of the collection. In other words, the mean of |x−m| where x is each data value and m is the mean, median, or mode of all the data values.
- 2. In statistics, the number of times something occurs, or is observed.
- 3. a collection of related measurements.
- 4. The third quartile minus the first quartile
- 6. The most common value in a collection, or “modes” if more than one are tied.
- 7. The answer to an addition problem.
- 9. Make a variable appear alone on one side of an equation or inequality, and not occur in the other side of the equation or inequality.
- 10. A diagram showing data values as dots above a number line.
- 12. Going from side to side, like the horizon.
- 14. The study of mathematical symbols and the rules for manipulating those symbols.
- 15. A line that you can flip (or reflect) a graph across that results in the same graph.
